The Emmons Case.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-ln the En-
mons case this morning the cross-exam-
ination Of DIR. w. w. Godding was con-
tinued. He repeated his statement that
Mrs. Emmons was OF sound mind.
DO you consider Mrs. Emmons an
inebriate?" asked Juror Perry.
NO, hardly that; but alcohol has had
marked effect on her hysterical tempera-
ment.
DR.. Lincoln was then called to the
stand. He related his first visit to Mrs.
Emmons. He said he found her in bed,
evidently suffering from the effect of
alcohol. On his second visit he found
her physically so weak that he became
alarmed for her life. Deeming it best
to have her confined in some place where
there would be restraint on her use of
stimulants, he suggested that Dr.. Simms,
Of New York, write a dccoy letter which
induced her to go to that city. Il have
never seen" said DR.. Lincoln, anything
on the part of Mrs. Emmons that indi-
Gated insanity. He believed she was
killing herself by excessive indulgence in
stimulants."

INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 20.-The Demo-
Gratis held a caucus to.night and decided

Labor member), who refuses to vote for

situation, may at some stage of to.mor-
rows proceedings cast his vote for Gov

men, and Thomas Hogan aged l6, a look

Pinkerton men who were stationed in the
company's yards to protect property.
Occasionally they raised a shower of snow
balls and other missiles upon the men.
Near by a crowd of strikers and their
sympathizers were assembled, and they
lent encouragement to the boys. At
length the leader of the Pinkerton men
stepped forward and ordered the boys to
stop throwing missiles at them. The
boys did not obey, and almost Immediately
three sharp cracks Of a revolver rang out
and Hogan fell dead.
The excitement was intense, and the
lookers.on fed in every direction. The

Tho Admission of Washington and
Montana,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-In its report
upon the senate bill to provide for the ad-
mission Washington Territory as a state
of the Union, the senate committees on
territories says the vote cast at the last
election in that portion of Idaho which
the bill proposes to add to the new state.
was 1916, which at Ethe ratio of four
represents a population of 81, 1876; adding
this 20 the population of Washington, the
new state will come into the Union with
25,000 more people than the established
unit of representation. The committee
is of the opinion that Washington Terri
tory has all the elements of wealth. in
telligence and local development in every
particular to enable her people to sue
cessfully establish and maintain a state
| government.
The committee takes up the claim of
Montana for admission to the Union, and
after showing that the population at the
last election was l5l,472, says it would
seem that Montana contains a larger pop
ulation than the ratio of representation in
congress. Copious quotations are made
from the governors recent message ex-
hibiting the financial condition of the ter
ritory, its vast resources and heavy ex-
ports of mineral and annual product.
The committee then recommends that
the original senate bill which provided
for the admission Of Washington Terri.
tory with a portion of Idaho, be so amend
ed as to include the territory of Montana,
and that the constitutions of the pro-
posed states of Washington and Montana
be submitted to congress instead of to the
president. as provided in the senate bill.
Another amendment proposed to the bill
is the requirement of the constitutions
of these new states shall include a pro-
vision f%orbidding polygamous association
or cohabitation within their jurisdiction.
Chairman Hill, however, excerpts to this
last amendment, in a minority report, in
which he says he dissents from the ma
iority of the committee in requiring any
religious test whatever in the formation
of the constitution, for a state of the
Union. or imposing any conditions what
ever except that the state constitution
shall be Republican in form and confirm
to the provisions of the constitution of
the United States.

Congressional Notes.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 20.-The house
passed a resolution calling on the secre-
tary of the treasury to inform the house
as to the sums of money which were
owing to the United States on the LIST of
January, 1887, from the Pacific railways,
the object being to get an opinion of the
treasury department as to the effect of
the passage of the house funding bill. In
its report the committee says there is
legislation pending to secure to the Uni
ted States the payment of all indebted
ness of the companies alluded to in the
resolution. No information can be OBJ
tanned from any reports made by the de-
partment as to the amounts owing the
government from the companies later than
June 80, 1856. 1t is very desirable and
almost necessary that the house be in
formed as to the true state of their ac-
counts, brought down to as late a day as
may be had, in order that there may be a
fair and intelligent consideration of such
measure. The judgment of the secretary
of the treasury as to the effect and result
of the bill, should it become a law, is
also greatly to be desired, so that the
house may have the same before it
previous TO acting on the measure.
The following committee reports were
submitted and referred; By Hill, Ohio,
from committee on territories, senate bill
for the admission OF the territory ofWash-
hington; house calendar.
By Cox, North Carolina, from commit
tee or foreign affairs, for the suppression
of the opium traffic; house calendar.
By O'Neil, Pennsylvania, from COM
mittee on library, for the completion OF
the to Mary, the mother of
Washington, at fredericksburg; COM
mittee OF the whole.
By Wynans, Michigan. from commit
tee on agriculture, authorizing the com
missioner of agriculture to make special
distribution of seeds in the drouth strick-
en- sections of Texas; committee of the
whole.
s. S. Cox rested last night and is
stronger this morning han he has been
for some time. He sat up for two hours
to-day.

Long and Short Hauls.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-At the even
ing session of the house there was a very
small attendance Of members.
Mr.. Morrow, of California, protested
against the enactment into u law of the
provisions of the long and short haul
section as being inimical to the interests
of the people of the Pacific coast.
Mr.. McKenna, Of California, could not
consent to the passage OF the bill without
protesting against legislation which was
so detrimental to the interests of Califor-
MIA as the legislation which was proposed
in the fourth section.
Mr.. Anderson, of Kansas, said that the
railroad system of the country was under
control of a few men who had power land
last year exercised that power of collect
ing from the people of the United States
800, 600, 000-some two or three times as
much as the government collected. These
men had been beyond any control except
their own c%ussedncss; and the question
then presented was whether the govern
ment should put itself by law between the
people and the rapacity of railroads.
Mr.. Sewell, of Illinois, replied to many
OF the criticisms advanced against the bill,
and argued that the courts and the COM
mission would have little difficulty in
placing a proper Interpretation upon the
